MOST NOTABLE TRANSACTION OF 3Q 2019

Brevet Capital Management 441 Ninth Avenue Cove Property Group (Cove) purchased 441 Ninth Avenue from owner-occupier EmblemHealth in 2016 with an elaborate renovation plan to build an 18-story glass and steel superstructure atop the existing eight- floor building. After purchasing additional air rights, Cove completed the 420-foot extension without adding a single column to the existing structure. The owner looked to build upon the asset’s historical roots as an industrial factory while ensuring that the renovation would stand the test of time. BrevetCapitalManagement (BrevetCapital), a traditional Plaza District occupier, shocked the market with its lease at 441 Ninth Avenue. The firm grew more than twice its existing footprint at 230 Park Avenue when it elected to lease 16,178 sf on the 20th floor of the new tower. Brevet Capital will benefit from all of the perks of new construction, including high ceilings, abundant natural light, state-of-the-art heating and cooling systems and outdoor space. “The open floor plan, abundant light and air, and industrial details will allow us to deepen our culture of collaboration and cross-pollinating information to createdynamicfinancial solutionsandpartnerships.” - DougMonticciolo, CEO, Brevet Capital Brevet Capital is one of many financial services firms looking to the Far West Side for new offices. Its neighbors will include Point72 Asset Management, Third Point Management, Nokota Management, Arosa Capital Management, and Engineers Gate.
